In a $G.P.$, if the product of the first three terms is $27$ and the set of all possible values for the sum of its first three terms is $\mathbb{R} - (a, b)$, then $a^{2} + b^{2}$ is equal to . . . . . . .

Let $a_{1}, a_{2}, a_{3}, \dots$ be a $G$.$P$. of increasing positive terms such that $a_{2} \cdot a_{3} \cdot a_{4} = 64$ and $a_{1} + a_{3} + a_{5} = \frac{813}{7}$. Then $a_{3} + a_{5} + a_{7}$ is equal to:

Consider an infinite geometric series with first term $a$ and common ratio $r$. If its sum is $4$ and the second term is $3/4$,find the values of $a$ and $r$.

If $\alpha, \beta$ are the roots of the equation $x^2 - 3x + a = 0$ and $\gamma, \delta$ are the roots of the equation $x^2 - 12x + b = 0$,and if $\alpha, \beta, \gamma, \delta$ form an increasing $G.P.$,then $(a, b) = $

Find the Geometric Mean $(G.M.)$ of the sequence $1, 2, 2^2, \dots, 2^n$.

In an increasing geometric progression of positive terms,the sum of the second and sixth terms is $\frac{70}{3}$ and the product of the third and fifth terms is $49$. Then the sum of the $4^{\text{th}}$,$6^{\text{th}}$,and $8^{\text{th}}$ terms is:
